Brynn Whitfield Is on the Outs With Her ‘RHONY’ Cast Members After Explosive S15 Finale

Content Warning: This article mentions rape.

Since Season 14 of Bravo's The Real Housewives of New York City, we've followed the reimagined RHONY cast — Jenna Lyons, Jessel Taank, Ubah Hassan, Erin Lichy, Sai de Silva, and Brynn Whitfield, with Racquel Chevremont and Rebecca Minkoff joining the series in Season 15. During the ladies' first two seasons, the women engaged in the fun shade made frequent jokes about each other's sex lives and dished out a few annoying pranks. However, the Season 15 finale showed a darker side to the often lighthearted show.

The Season 15 finale was a life-altering one for Brynn. During the cast's trip to Puerto Rico, her feud with Ubah Hassan became worse when she made an allegation that could affect her future on the show.

So, is Brynn handing in her apple after the explosive season? Here's what to know.

While Brynn's job on RHONY is currently safe, she may not want it. The Season 15 finale ended with most of the cast, besides Erin Lichy and Jenna Lyons, speaking to Brynn after the group's trip to Puerto Rico. On the trip, the drama between Ubah and Brynn escalated after Brynn expressed why she was so upset. Ubah accused her of sleeping with someone to get her job on the show, a comment she had made earlier in the evening.

Brynn told the group that the accusation made her so emotional because she was once raped, a fact she claimed Ubah knew. When Jessel Taank mentioned what Brynn said to Ubah, the model became hysterical and profusely denied knowing Brynn was raped. The scene became so explosive that producers had to separate the women and keep them in different corners of the house.

Hours later, amongst the group sans Ubah and Jessel, Brynn admitted she didn't think Ubah "clocked it" when she told her about the rape during BravoCon 2023. The admission stunned her friends, with Racquel stating in a confessional that she believed Brynn lied about telling Ubah.

Though the ladies clarified they didn't think Brynn lied about being raped, they knew Ubah had no idea it happened. The blowup caused production to wrap the trip early, and no one could barely look at Brynn during the cast's photo shoot in the final scene.

After the finale, social media commenters labeled Brynn a "narcissist" and felt her time on the show was up. Many sympathized with Ubah and felt Brynn's true colors came out in the finale. It appears the marketing professional's co-stars are also on Ubah's side.

Following the RHONY finale, Jenna appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen and confirmed that none of the ladies had spoken to Brynn since they filmed the two-part reunion in New York on Dec. 12, 2024. She also felt that, while Brynn was known for telling a little "white lie" or two all season, her allegation against Ubah "went too far" in her opinion.

"There had been things along the way with Brynn that have made me unclear about her intentions and some of the things that have been said," Jenna recalled. "But I also know that she’s someone who embellishes and so I have chalked it up that many times. And I have tenderness around that.”

Later in the conversation, Jenna said she and the other cast members felt "duped" after being at the reunion knowing what they knew.

“When someone’s stories turn into putting someone else in a dangerous position or an unhappy position, that changes the game,” she noted. “That’s not what we’re here to do. That’s not what this show is about. It’s not what we’re about. And I think we were all feeling a little protective and scared.”

Before the finale aired, fans were concerned about Brynn's future on RHONY. In December 2024, rumors swirled that she was leaving the show after Hasty Headlines shared a statement, "After two incredible seasons, I’ve made the difficult decision to step away from The Real Housewives of New York." The post was a faux statement, but could it have been an omen?
